Biggest Mistake?

[Inixtyre]

What do you think is your biggest mistake you made with your business? Mine was becoming a partner with a relative and I ignored the advice to never do business with friends or family.

[LynnM]

Not taking action.

[Kurt]

Just one?

One (of many) was when I first started in IM thinking others were competitors instead of looking at them as potential partners.

[Jeffery]

Not building a list.

[JoeSpirit]

It'll take me a while to figure out what the biggest one was. And then I'd be hard put to determine how long that one will stay at the top of the list.

[Kurt]

Yeah we should probably make a list instead of trying to just pick one.

This is just one of my many issues. (Click to play):

I made a lot of mistakes but in the process of doing this I helped some people.  I try not to focus on the 
mistakes because they have to be made in order to progress.  I like to think I made a difference in someones life
and I tried to do that.   I tried to partner with someone who I am pretty sure had mental issues.  All I can say is
don't do that.  I think that was my biggest mistake.

I based my whole businesses on quizzes written using Flash. I knew that Flash was being gradually phased out but I was going through a divorce and thought I had the time to deal with it. Then I started getting complaints that my quizzes didn't work any more. Lost most of my business.
